Sad funny, some people should not be allowed to sell anemones

[Flighty]

Sigh. I thought I would check out the anemones that some online retailers have advertised just to see how they are marketed. Now I'm a bit depressed, but I thought I would share this one

Notice they sell a "Stichodacty- lahaddonibart" which they got the name of from the filename of the lifted photo. Bart is the first four letters of the photographers name by the way.

Where can I get a "Macrodactyla" like that too?

technically they are anemones as well as zooanthids. Zoos are colonial anems.

wait a minute, mermin.... you work at a LFS?

Corallimorphs are sometimes called "mushroom anemones" or "mushroom corals", ek9vboi. Technically not anemones at all. Neither are Zoanthids.
Flighty- the "Macrodactyla" (actually a mag anemone) pictured in your link was copied right off of the cover of Sprung/Delbeek II.
edit:
I'll admit that I bit by posting a reply here. You two were probably already aware of the info I posted.

Aw, you didn't let me down.
You're right- anemones, corallimorphs and zooanthids are similar.
